Do you think it's reasonable for a man to look for a housewife? Unless he's a handsome billionaire who can provide a good life for his wife & kids?

I am not against the men who want a housewife but as per 2021 I don't think it's possible to run the household on single income?

Thoughts?

If I was sufficiently well off financially I would not mind but I would not presume to tell my wife or girlfriend what to do with her life. I would only tell her she has the option of not having a paid job if she wants. But in any case I'd like to see her active doing something either a useful hobby or as a volunteer some place.

That's so thoughtful and mature.

[AmeerX]

I honestly think it is possible to run the household with single earner in the family

[Asker]

If 7 figures, yes.

[AmeerX]

I have seen people do it. So, no not with 7 figures but with 5 figures monthly salary

Definitely possible with much lower then that amount. Depending on where they live and how luxurious of a life they live

[mintbloo]

You’re all being silly. It’s just not realistic in 2021. And honestly I’d rather do something with my life and contribute something to the world and make something of myself.

@mintbloo I've been a stay at home mom for almost 7 years. Two kids and I'm pregnant with my third. Never once had a issue affording anything

[Apple1996]

@mintbloo and yeah it's your life so definitely do what makes you happy

[AmeerX]

@mintbloo no one said anything about not contributing. Housewives also contribute otherwise you need babysitters that again costs money right

[mintbloo]

@ameerx you can get a stay at home computer job. VERY common nowadays. you can make money AND raise kids. all at home.

[AmeerX]

@mintbloo wow, I didn't say stay at home. I gave a clear picture

[Apple1996]

@mintbloo it's better to not work and give the kids all the attention that they need and deserve. If a family can survive just fine off one income I don't see why we need to get greedy and work for more money and ignore the kids. Just doesn't make sense to me.

@Apple1996 are you American?

[Apple1996]

Yes I am!🇺🇸

[AmeerX]

@Apple1996 I am honored to find someone who is like that from US.

[Apple1996]

Yes definitely is okay. Everyone is allowed to have there preferences on who they want to be with. I know my husband loves that I'm a housewife and wouldn't ever want me to be working. We make it work off of one income without any issues.

[Agape93]

Nope. If you can afford to give a decent life, go for it. But don’t expect someone to live in squalor just because you insist on her staying home, and you make shitty money

[Aquariusmystery]

I’d LOVE to be a housewife but it’s never happening lol I can’t afford life even with a job

Ofc its possible, you just need to be successful
